She is descended from a Charlie Furtick who married an Eulala WIse. They had 4 children. Her grandfather , Grady Furtick was one of these children. He told her that his father just disappeared one day and they never knew what happened to him. I found a Charlie Furtick in the 1880 census for Lexington County , Sandy Run , HH# 181, the household of Henry Hutto and wife , Elizabeth. Charlie is listed as the 9 year old stepson of Henry Hutto. This might be your Charlie. Let me know if it is . Helen
